How do you get smaller in weight?

Weight loss is all about taking in less calories than you use. You burn calories just by breathing, pumping blood, and thinking. You burn calories by walking and other types of activity. To lose weight safely, nutritionists generally recommend consuming about 500 calories less per day than normal. You'll lose about a pound a week that way. Also, if you increase your physical activity, you could lose even more. If you consume 500 less and burn 250 more per day, you'll have a deficit of about 750 calories. Each pound is about 3500 calories, so you'll be losing about 1.5 pounds a week. As you decrease the calories you consume, consider eliminating high calorie drinks and snacks. Instead, eat lots of fruits and vegetables, whole grains (like breads and pastas), lean meats, and low fat dairy products. You want to continue getting all of those vitamins and minerals your body needs, just in less calories than you are used to.


How many calories should a Fifty year old man of five foot eleven inches weighing two hundred five pounds consume?

I calculated, using the Harris-Benedict equation that you need to consume about 2340 calories per day to maintain your weight. This is assuming that you are most sedentary, meaning you do little or no exercise. If you are a little bit more active than that (light exercise and activity a few days a week) it would be more like 2500 calories. If neither of those fit your description, use a search engine and search "BMR" or "Harris Benedict equation" and you should be able to calculate for yourself. Obviously, the more active you are the more calories you burn per day. If you are trying to lose weight, this could mean being able to eat more calories!

How much fat can you eat on your daily calories?

You should consume at least 0.75g of protein per kg body weight. After calculating the amounts of calories you get form the recommended intake of protein you subtract that from your daily caloric need. The number you now have should be divided by 9 and you have the amount of fat (in grams) that you should eat to reach your caloric need. Because carbohydrates are non-essential I did not include them. The lowest amount of fat you should consume is 1g per kg body weight. So if you want to consume carbohydrates you could easily add them into the equation.
